When you hear Double Doink, you don’t just hear a missed kick—you hear a franchise cracking at its core.
In this emotional episode of Sports Scar’d, host Kevin Pearce sits down with Blair Cutts of Honor Club Media to revisit the 2019 NFC Wild Card Game between the Chicago Bears and the Philadelphia Eagles. But this isn’t just about Cody Parkey’s kick. It’s about a city clinging to hope. A fanbase still haunted by a single ring from 1985. A generation desperate to believe again.
Blair walks us through the heartbreak moment by moment—starting with the Bears’ dominant 2018 defense led by Khalil Mack, moving through the cautious optimism of Trubisky’s progress, and landing in the living room as he stood frozen, in full Bears gear, watching the ball hit the upright... then the crossbar.
But the pain didn’t stop there.
We unpack the real issues behind the collapse: front office decisions, missed chances, and the weight of always being the team that almost gets there. Blair doesn’t hold back when it comes to Mitchell Trubisky, Cody Parkey, or the lasting ache that season left behind.
Still, there’s something deeper at play—loyalty. Even after everything, Blair reflects on what it means to believe in the future. He talks Caleb Williams, the spirit of Chicago football, and why Bears fans keep showing up—no matter how many times they get let down.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
- A Chicago native’s first-hand retelling of Double Doink
- Raw commentary on Jay Cutler, Trubisky, and the Parkey kick
- The emotional fallout of one of the NFL’s most cursed endings
- Reflections on hope, heartbreak, and why fans stay loyal
- Cold, cinematic storytelling that matches the moment—black, blue, and orange
If you’ve ever stood in front of your TV in disbelief, or sat in stunned silence after your team let it all slip away, this one hits home.
🎧 Watch now as part of the Sports Scar’d docuseries—stories of pain that never left the field.
